Well I wouldn't have told anyone (and still haven't yet) but mum was supposed to come over today to keep me company, so she's the only one to know and will stay that way til we're genuinely on our way to hospital in active labour.
Thanks a lot for that article Kelly...it definitely puts my mind at ease that my body is doing the right things...it's just taking its time in doing so!
Christy, my body and heart are telling me to stay home so thankfully that is where I find myself.
Now, just have to make sure I eat and drink properly...I haven't eaten much all day :(

Ok update! I've just had some fresh bleeding...I guess what you would consider a 'show' but no CM...still comfy at home, although the contractions are getting more painful :crying:
-

Woo HOo Fran!!! Well done! You are doing a great job, just remember to keep the warmth & heat on your lower back, it really helps. Also just walking through them. I found I was sitting on the fit ball at home rotating my hips and putting a heat pack on. I climbed into bed & then couldn't stay there for more than 10 minutes because I had to be moving. You are doing really well. Eat some high energy food, but only a small amount. And grab some poweraide to start sipping!

Good luck hope to hear some new baby news soon. Congratulations on being so in control, I hope you take the time to enjoy remember and marvel in the wonder of this time, it wont feel as long once it is all over.
